Optimal Control of Lipid Extraction Model on Microalgae Using Linear Quadratic Regulator (LQR) and Pontryagin Maximum Principle (PMP) Methods

Pontryagin Maximum Principle for Optimal Control of

In this paper we investigate optimal control problems governed by variational inequalities. We present a method for deriving optimality conditions in the form of Pontryagin's principle. The main tools used are the Ekeland's variational principle combined with penalization and spike variation techniques. 1. Introduction. The purpose of this paper is to present a method for deriving a Pontryagin ...

Enhancement of Articulated Heavy Vehicle Stability by Optimal Linear Quadratic Regulator (LQR) Controller of Roll-yaw Dynamics

Non-linear characteristic of tire forces is the main cause of vehicle lateral dynamics instability, while direct yaw moment control is an effective method to recover the vehicle stability. In this paper, an optimal linear quadratic regulator (LQR) controller for roll-yaw dynamics to articulated heavy vehicles is developed. For this purpose, the equations of motion obtained by the MATLAB sof...

The Pontryagin Maximum Principle

Theorem (PontryaginMaximum Principle). Suppose a final time T and controlstate pair (û, x̂) on [τ, T ] give the minimum in the problem above; assume that û is piecewise continuous. Then there exist a vector of Lagrange multipliers (λ0, λ) ∈ R × R with λ0 ≥ 0 and a piecewise smooth function p: [τ, T ] → R n such that the function ĥ(t) def =H(t, x̂(t), p(t), û(t)) is piecewise smooth, and one has ̇̂ ...
